re: Night Fishing Memories

When I was a lad pops would take me to Bussey Brake at night during the summers perch fishing. We would hang 2-3 Coleman lanterns up on stumps out in the stump field. You'd have to wait an hour or so for the bugs to get to sizzling and falling in the water commencing the underwater food chain to wake up. Once the minnow and subsequent white perches got there we would pull perch after perch out of the water. When one lantern would slow down we'd troll over to another one. Twas awesome.
